Mumbai, July 4

After his last directorial venture, the aviation-thriller 'Runway 34', Ajay Devgn is set to direct another film, his fourth directorial, which will be an emotional drama titled 'Bholaa'.

Devgn, who is also starring in the movie alongside frequent collaborator Tabu, said he is excited to return to the director's chair after 'Runway 34'.

Asked how he managed to shoot the film so quickly post his April release 'Runway 34', the actor said, "Well the preparation was done earlier on. It was just a question of getting behind the camera again and saying the three magic words- lights, camera, action."  Bholaa is set for release in theatres on March 30, 2023.

The film is in production stage and Ajay will finish principal photography on the film by August 20.

'Bholaa' was earlier supposed to be directed by Dharmendra Sharma, who has served as an editor on Devgn's films such as 'Son of Sardaar', 'Shivaay', and 'Bhuj: The Pride of India'.

Devgn made his directorial debut in 2008 with the drama "U Me Aur Hum" and followed it up with his 2016 action movie 'Shivaay' and 'Runway 34', an edge-of-the-seat thriller, which released in April.

'Bholaa' is currently being shot in Hyderabad.

The original film, written-directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, revolved around an ex-convict (played by Karthi) who decides to meet his daughter for the first time after being released from prison but gets caught in a face-off between police and drug mafia.

'Bholaa' is produced by Ajay Devgn Ffilms, T-Series Films, Reliance Entertainment and Dream Warrior Pictures.

It will hit the theatres on March 30, 2023

Meanwhile, on the acting front, Ajay has 'Maidaan', 'Thank God', and 'Drishyam 2' lined up for release. He will also be seen in a cameo in Rohit Shetty's 'Cirkus'.
